What MALA does best
The three that matter most — then everything else under the hood.
Staff app
Run the floor from a phone
Your team logs end-of-day takings, ticks off cleaning, raises incidents and requests stock transfers from a wall tablet or their own phone — and it all flows straight to the owner. Live front-of-house bonus targets keep the team pushing.
One dashboard
Every venue's numbers in one place
MALA pulls POS, rosters, suppliers and accounting into one owner-facing dashboard. See turnover, labour % and food cost % for a single venue or the whole group — without logging into five separate tools.
Unparalleled insights
The insights nobody else gives you
Hourly revenue heatmaps, weather correlation, event-day lift, theoretical-vs-actual food cost variance and per-venue KPI targets with colour-coded variance everywhere — the detail that keeps a venue honest.
